Chelsea vs Barrow Prediction: 24/9/2024

Chelsea have had a tough time in recent EFL Cup outings, losing nine of their last ten matches, leaving their supporters with little to cheer about and making a return to form in the competition seem unlikely. On the other hand, Barrow is aiming for a top-flight title, having secured nine wins in 15 away games this season.

Chelsea’s recent home games in the competition have typically been low-scoring affairs. In nine of their last 11 home matches, the total goals scored have been under 3.5, with only a draw and a win breaking that pattern. Similarly, Barrow’s last 14 away matches at this level have all seen fewer than three goals.

Chelsea has made for exciting viewing, with both teams scoring in 15 of their last 19 EFL Cup games. Barrow has shown a similar trend, with 12 of their last 13 matches also featuring goals from both sides, making them consistently entertaining to watch.
